Six Simple Things

This week was full of good times, I'm having a hard time keeping my list of moments that make me smile to just six.

1. Taking a break from academic "rigor" to give students time to engage in developmentally appropriate activities like playing with Play Doh and building with blocks.

2. Excellent Room Parents to plan, coordinate, and carry out an amazing Halloween party.

3. Hearing from parents that their child pretends to be a teacher at home with their siblings.

4. Notes from Mrs. Neshawait delivered by extremely polite kiddos.

5. The ease of motivating a 5/6 year old to do extra homework. Simply host a "Lunch Bunch" with participating kids at the end of the month.

6. When Calvin gave his dad one last hug before entering school and sweetly told him, "I love you."
